Good question, I don’t know. If it is old shitty SSD you can exhaust lifetime write in days.

So they test 2200 drives for 2 hours?

Try compressing it in to a tar, this will save permissions.

you can also use backup tools like “Pika backup” (borg backup).

Constant maintenance no.

Currently I have some issues with the Nvidia driver acting up. So I am getting good at purging it and reinstalling it. Maybe once a month.

Under Ubuntu desktop.

My server I have very little issues. For mye Proxmox environments I have a small issue after restart it doesn’t properly month a NFS share. If I don’t do mount -a.

My laptop I have a constant issue that hibernating don’t work with encryption out of the box. So I have to turn if off or connected it to power. I think there have been mad some progress but I haven’t reinstalled Ubuntu for 2 years.

You guys still run Windows?!

I am running BTRFS Raid 6. i have no problems with it. You need a UPS to avoid transient errors.

I would recommend move to BTRFS or ZFS. Easyer and safer to work with.
